My Primitive 50th Birthday Party at the Hut: Piñata, Cake, Wine & More
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 вер 2022
- Primitive cultures all had there own traditional ways to celebrate special events. Food, drink, costumes, decorations and unique activities were all sourced from the land and made to serve the purpose of the festivities. In this video I use the natural resources of the land to bushcraft a piñata, bake a cake, and brew some wine to celebrate my 50th birthday in the most primitive way. There are also cameo appearances by a desert tortoise, a diamondback rattlesnake, and coyotes can be heard howling in the distance. This series will be ongoing so stay tuned for the next episode.

My equipment:
Camera: Nikon D7500 and GoPro Hero7 Black
Sound: Zoom H6
Editing: Final Cut Pro X on MacBook Air
Location: Parts Unknown
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):
Who films you?
Me. I travel alone, shoot, edit, upload, everything, all alone. On a few occasions I may be accompanied by a friend, but that has been very rare.
Do you stay out there permanently?
No, I usually stay out in a wilderness area for about a week and then hike out and return to a city for editing and uploading. I have family and other obligations to take care of as well.
How many cameras do you use?
Usually I use just one camera. When I have underwater scenes then I also use a GoPro camera. I get different angles by moving the camera around and repeating the action to create a more cinematic viewing experience for the audience.
Where is this place?
In order to protect the integrity of the natural landscape I prefer to be very vague about the locations I use. There are places that I used to visit that were so beautiful and untouched but the consequences of social media brought all kinds of people to visit and sadly some people do not respect nature and have badly damaged these places. Therefore I do not share locations.
Where did you get your sandals?
I first started wearing sandals on outdoor adventures in February 2014. I’m so glad that I did because wearing these Luna Sandals has really helped strengthen my feet. You can see their selection of adventure and running sandals at this link: www.lunasandals.com/?rfsn=102...

Do you workout?
Yes, I workout, but not in a gym. I have some weights that I use and also do a lot of bodyweight exercises. I also run and sometimes swim. I hike frequently to collect wild foods and to shoot these videos so I'm very active all the time.
Are you vegan or vegetarian?
I wish I could maintain my health on a primal diet that does not include animals but unfortunately that did not work well and I ended up with health problems as a result of those attempts. From my studies, observations of nature, and personal experience I have come to believe that the best diet for optimal human health is a primal diet (paleo).
Do you get lonely when you’re alone?
No, I don’t get lonely. I’m actually so busy shooting video, taking photos and doing so many other things like making cordage, cooking, weaving, etc. that I really don’t have time to think about my lonely condition. Sometimes when something profound happens on an adventure I can’t wait to share it with people, but other than that I do not get lonely.
How many languages do you speak?
My first language is English but I also speak fluent Spanish and Portuguese. I also speak very little Russian. I may soon begin learning more languages.
How old are you?
I was born in 1972. At the time of this video I was 50.
Where did you get the music in your videos?
This series is the first one that I am making all the music myself. I recently made a drum and maracas (rumba shaker). I am now using them to create the intro and ending music in my videos, but before in the past I have used royalty free music from several sources including UA-cam. Sometimes I bought the music but usually it was free. - Навчання та стиль
Happy Birthday dear Chad 🤗
Thank you!
He's like a primitive Martha Stewart in this one! Cool
Hahaha
50?! Bro you’re in better shape than most people half your age that’s amazing happy birthday what a gigachad
Yeah, half a century. Well, I eat a very primal diet and have for a long time. I also exercise just about every day. Of course I spend lots of time outdoors too.
@@ChadZuberAdventures Exercise is the key man, especially with age.
That is because he eats healthy food and most importantly he touch grass
I thought he's in his early 40s, maybe late 30s or something...
I wish I was 40 again.
Your videos make me feel so much better about life. I have chronic illness and I can't go do the primitive things I would love to do. I have many skills that I cannot now enjoy because of my health. But watching your videos really blesses me. Happy Birthday!
I'm so sorry to hear this. I hope that there is at least some primitive skills you can practice. Can you make cordage? Weaving? I understand if you can't but please try to find something you can do. It is so good for you.
Your channel helps me relax and sleep and took me through some rough times. So thank you for that and all that you do! Happy Birthday!
Thanks. May you always rest well.
Thank you for working hard to make entertaining and educational content! I hope you enjoy your birthday and celebrate many more years of good health!
Thank you I really appreciate it!
Each year u can reflect on ur progress, how better of a person u've become. Happy Birthday Chad, have a good one!
Based Saul pfp
Thanks a lot Malina!
Happy birthday :) Always been nice watching the old way of living. Seems more peaceful and less stressful than now.
Thank you! Yeah, the old ways are very different from our modern times.
Veige you are looking well foundationed for a similar life. I moved to nz 30+ YRS ago from SW US. Chad is so wise.
This dude is 50? I thought he was like barely 30s
Me too
Bro same
yep yall are young 😅🤣🤣
@@jameshull7261 what?
According to my birth certificate I am 50. Sucks getting old!
Happy birthday, Chad! Thanks for taking us along!
Thanks for coming on board
असं वाटते की तुम्ही आदिवासी जीवन जगत🙏🌹🌹
Feliz cumpleaños ✨️ 🎂 espero que ayas disfrutando de toda esa rica y primitiva comida muy buen video sigue asi.
Muchísimas gracias!
21:37 AWESOME! It seems the naturalized plants are thriving!
If they survive the rest of summer and fall then they have a good chance to flourish next year.
Hello, By the way, it is not often that a precious species of desert turtle will ever be seen in your proximity again. But if you do get a second chance to see him, give him/her some of your prickly pear fruit inorder to initiate the start of a good friendship. Incidentally, he/she won't interfere with your progress. So he or she will make an ideal distant companion. As for your garden, if the squash didn't proliferate, you may want to consider planting: onions, 🍅tomatoes, 🌶chilies, garlic, and cilantro to accompany a cooked and diced cactus paddle salad. And don't forget that 🌽corn can be an excellent addition too. Happy 🥮 birthday Chadwick!
Happy birthday Chad. Glad to see you still keeping everything 💯.
I try!
@@ChadZuberAdventures
👍👌👏 Yeah, what else can we do!? Best regards, luck and health.
@@ChadZuberAdventures are u American
At 11:08 chad parted my hair with that gust of wind. You are insane based! All that WORK just for some cake n booze. Best show on youtube hands down.
Hahahah! The reality is the pursuit of food is a full time job in the primal world.
@@ChadZuberAdventures came back to watch the rest. That piñata was so cool! Crazy details in these!
I don't know why, but the idea of eating a cake in the middle of a hailstorm, being in the middle of nowhere, and being by myself has a certain vibe to it.
С Днем рождения🌺🥀🌺💛поздравляю!
Очень давно смотрю твой канал и восхищаюсь твоими идеями и работой оператора и художника. Ты показываешь людям, что на самом деле человеку не так уж и много необходимо. Для вполне счастливой жизни в гармонии с природой. Спасибо тебе.
Отлично выглядишь , даже нельзя подумать , что тебе 50 лет. По прежнему красавчик))
Happy Birthday. When it started to rain after you hit the piñata I thought it was very spiritual.
It was so awesome! I'm glad you noticed that. The timing was perfect.
Hearing coyotes out in the middle of nowhere is actually a lovely sound. Oh, BTW, the older you get, the better you burp! 😆
Does leaching the holly leaf cherry flour remove the black cherry ice cream flavor? So there we have it folks! Chad is now the big 50! Don't be surprised if AARP starts sending mail right to the hut's front door! 🤣🤣
I love hearing coyotes. The holly leaf cherry flour only smells like black cherry ice cream, it never tastes like it. The taste is hard to describe... I won't be surprised if I start getting ads from mortuaries and burial plots.
@@ChadZuberAdventures Cheer up brother. You are in great shape and healthy. You love Jesus and are blessed. And we all love you. 💓🙏
Like a survivalist you are the best, but like a cake maker you are a disaster 😁..Happy birthday Chad !!
Thanks for the truth!
my great grandfather, he told me about the lightning being a certain distance away. based on the amount of seconds it took for the sound to travel. i love that you mentioned that.
Yeah, the lightning always looks closer to me than it really is.
Happy birthday! I've been watching your channel for a while. Much love and support!
Thank you so much!
مرحبا كنت بأنتظار هذا الفيديو لارى إلى اي مدى تحصل كل تلك التطورات التي تصنعها بجهودك اوقات طيبة 🌷
ain't no way this man's 50 !! He built like he early 30's 🤣 . Wish I could experience one day in the wild with him and learn from his wisdom. Bless up sir an happy young birthday 🙏
But underneath this skin I'm broken like a man in his 70s
@@ChadZuberAdventures but your spirit is as high as a mountain, sir !
Have a great birthday Chad! You're an inspiration
Thanks Michael
Feliz aniversário Chad! Você é a minha inspiração, eu sempre tive vontade de fazer essas coisas que você faz! Você é uma pessoa de muita sorte, te desejo muitas coisas boas em sua vida!
Muito obrigado!! Deus te abençoe muito!
Cheers! I actually have some beverages made with grapes and blackthorns from the garden fermenting in the kitchen. I hope to look as healthy as you if I reach fifty! And beautiful shots of the animals and the thunderstorm.
Enjoy! That sounds like a delicious combination.
What a birthday feast.. grog in one hand, cake in the other, and the jar of grog snugly resting on the lap... that sounds like an absolute blast!
Happy Birthday! ...I decided that when I turned 50 (earlier this year) I had entered the Elven Age, lol...since for the vast majority of human history, humans who survived childhood started dying off at 50, and since my life expectancy is twice that, I clearly must be one of the longer-lived races, now. XD
Thank you! Half a century to go.
That’s so awesome. Happy 50th birthday mate. Hope your happy and going great out there. He reminds me of Tarzan but like in the desert or something
Thanks a lot!
Holy shit you are 50??????
I'm on self improvement rn and hopefully I end up like you.
But it's basically genetics and you must be the most gifted person I ever came across
Yeah, I'm half a century now.
It’s not just genetics, he takes good care of himself. Frequent sunlight, fresh air, natural food, natural washing methods, and exercise.
@@victornieves1794 of course but genetics play a very big role
I'll wish you a happy birthday again Chad! You really are the biggest Chad on UA-cam! I love your videos, they're so raw yet refined at the same time, somehow. You're never afraid to show your failures, and your triumphs are inspirational.
Happy Birthday Chad, thank you and all your stone age dreams come true👍
Hahaha, thanks!
Dude happy freaking birthday and may the great spirits guide and protect you.
Thank you! Thank you!
Hi Chad, happy birthday! Lots of humor in this one. Counting the minutes to grind....then all of a sudden there is a half minute, lol. Taking off the loin cloth.....as a blindfold, almost looked like you were.....lol. Lovely cake and booze too...and all that work for a pinata, pretty special birthday you had. Thanx for taking us all along :-).
Almost looked like I was WHAT?? I seriously don't know where you were going with that statement. Hahahah. Thanks for the birthday wishes.
@@ChadZuberAdventures lol, happy birthday :-)
Happy birthday 🎂 chad, you don't look 50 at all, whatever you're doing to look young is really working, I hope you had a good birthday
I eat very primal
Many many happy returns of the day Mr. Chad. Let God's love and light always with you. Great video. Greetings from India.🙏💗🌹
Thank you my friend
50 years old and man is built like a chad happy birthday man!
Hahaha, thanks James!
Once Chad always a Chad.
50th birthday? Dang dude, you look amazing for 50! Happy birthday!
Thanks, I appreciate it a lot!
50 years of living on this beautiful planet... Spending it like this, awesome dude!
It is such an amazing planet. It saddens me to see all the destruction we humans are causing.
@@ChadZuberAdventures such is the duality of man...
I thought you were in your 30s!
Happy birthday!
I wish I was in my 30s
This is awesome HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Thanks!
Happy Birthday! Really loved the new video, especially the lightning and thunder sequence and the making of the prickly pear beverage! Looked really yummy and as if it was an absolute highlight to you, too. ♡ Thanks for your informative and entertaining insights that are always so down to earth and calming!
Feliz cumpleaños mi amigo y sigue disfrutando de la naturaleza.
Damn you're fifty? I woulda guessed 40 or so. Happy birthday!
¡Feliz cumpleaños!
Thank you! Thank you y gracias!!
Happy Birthday Brother I wish you the best, and you can have another million subs . You look so good for 50.
I appreciate it. Thank you very much.
That rain perfect timed..... I'm so envious
You are such an inspiration! Ambition, drive and lifestyle! Nothing is more satisfying than creating in nature and the fact you go to such lengths in order to also share that experience with us is incredible! I hope you had an amazing 50th birthday and that you have an equally fulfilling life for all the years to come
Thank you very much!
Beautiful prickly pear I usually collect them to make jelly and choke cherry for syrup for the ice cream
That sounds really good!
Hi Chad good morning Happy Birthday to you wish you all the best.. God bless you.
Thanks so much!
Feliz cumpleaños Chad!, te deseamos una vida plena y sana! 🥳🥳
Muchas gracias!
I have been following you since 2017, you have taught me something in life. Never depend on someone and we can do anything as long as we are healthy. Happy 50th birthday 🎂🎉. May the good Lord Continue protecting you with good health. Sending love from Africa Zambia. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes, health is so important but eventually we may depend more on others. Greetings to you in Zambia!
@@ChadZuberAdventures Thank you so much for responding Chad. How I wish you had come to our village right here where we are in Zambia Livingstone. We are living in park where we eat with Hyenas and Elephants and wild dogs plus Monkeys. It's a big community and we really love it here. Please find time to visit Africa someday
Happy Birthday, Chad.
Thanks!
Happy 50th birthday Chad x All the best
Thank you so much Andrea!
I can't remember how I celebrated my 50th birthday but, I don't think I'll be able to forget how you celebrated yours. Congratulations Chad.

Muito obrigado camarada
Happy birthday! May your whole year overflow with blessings!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR CHAD!BEST WISHES TO YOU!
Thanks!
17:54 will you save some to plant also? I bet the would provide a beautiful natural shade, and I bet they flower at some point too.
No, holly leaf cherry will not grow in this climate. The winter is too cold and the summer too hot.
Omg no way you're 50! A very happy birthday to you and many happy returns! 😊
Thank you! Thank you!
@@ChadZuberAdventures you are most welcome, keep up the great work! It is amazing to see the remarkable skills you've shared thus far and I look forward to what else you share 🤩Happy 29 and holding! This lifestyle definitely suits you! 😍
Happy Birthday old man! Lol! I can't brag, I'm 54! It's not how old you are; it's how you are old! 🍻
Good point! How you are old.
Happy Birthday, Chad! You are very good person, as much as I can know. It is a pleasure to be your (at least a little) virtual friend. And thank you for all your content!
Thanks a lot! I appreciate it!
I love this freedom of yours with nature. I look at the wrong fruit tree, it's really amazing. I always wish you happiness, good luck
Thank you
I wanna live like this. Can you do an episode whereby you get a fan to spend the week with you. (HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAD)
I don't know. Maybe that could be arranged in the future.
I don't think a normal person can hang for a week. But I say a day would be cool!
Muchas felicidades nene!!!!..y que cumplas muchos más.
Muchas gracias David!
sorry to be late, happy birthday, may you be blessed with many more. cheers
Happy birthday bro. Wish you an infinite more years to come. Appreciate everything you do. Mad respect.
Thank you!
Happy birthday Chad ! I cant wait to post something for us ,U're a strong and brave man !
Thank you
Happy birthday chad! Cant wait to see more of these vids!
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for all the vids over the times. Some brought me some much needed peace in the present and knowledge for the future.
I'm very happy to hear that. May you continue to find peace in this chaotic world.
Wow chad I would never in a million years say you are older than 30. You look amazing.
Well, in a million years I will be 1,000,050 years old!
Happy birthday Chad. Stay healthy. 💝🙋♂️✌️
Thank you!
Feliz aniversário...! Que tenha uma vida plena de saúde e ligenvidade...!🎂🎂🎂🇧🇷
Muito obrigado!
OBVIOUSLY a healthy lifestyle makes a BIG difference (good aging genes don't hurt either😉). My husband got the good aging genes TOO, full head of dark brown hair and all. At 63 he looks YOUR age (or younger). Whereas I look every MINUTE of MY 64 years. After 45 years of marriage, I'm just happy he's still satisfied with his choice.
Happy birthday by the way! 🎉🎁🎊🎂 Here's to the mid point in a long, healthy, and happy life!🍻 (It's not fermented prickly pear juice, but it'll have to do.)
Yes, lifestyle makes a huge difference indeed as well as do the genes.... Thanks for the birthday wishes!
Thanks for the content throughout the years😍
ممتاز يا صديقي 😊🇲🇦
Briliant, congratulations chad, this I consider as sucess.👏
Yeah it all turned out pretty good
Happy birthday Chad! I raise a glass with you to celebrate!

Huzzah & Happy Birthday Buddy! What a way to celebrate! All the best to you and yours.
well happy birthday! i hope you had a good one man. a whole hour long video, looking forward to it. :D
This is the longest video I ever made.
@@ChadZuberAdventures and im glad you made it, great work.
27:54 you should save that water. Maybe make a special pot and lid to store it, might be useful for preserving hide later.
I did save some to use later but I can easily make more tannin-rich water with oak. There's a lot of scrub oak in these hills.
Gratz! Have a good day! Happy birthday
HERZLICHEN GLÜCKWUNSCH Nachträglich zum Geburtstag 🦋

Happy birthday! You deserve all you want and all you got! Hugs from Brazil!
Happy Birthday! You look great.
Thank you so much!
A very happy birthday, Chad! Thank you for being educational and inspiring, as always. I have one question; as colder weather is right around the corner, I was wondering when you'd be making a door for the hut? And when do you plan on completing the tiled floor project?
Yeah, it's time to start preparing for winter. I still need a lot of tiles for the floor. The rainy season slowed my progress there.
Yeeeyyyyy piñata. 👍🏻🥳🥳👏👏👏👏happy happy birthday to you🤗🤗
' It's showtime! ' Proceed to untie his pants.. lolll You're 50 years old?!!! You're in such great shape! Also I would pay money to have a taste of that cake and a sip of that cactus juice. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHAD!!!! Wishing you the best of everything! :D
Hahaha, my wild foods are certainly an experience but not match the taste of your local bakery.
